well the new tank is now in the new stand, thanks to Sewerat.. Hopefully the plumbing will be done next weekend and filled. My guys will be so happy for the real-estate after being cramped in a 35 gal.
pictures will follow.
If that's not already glued up i would suggest moving that valve down past the second 90 so you can access it from the front. I'm assuming the tank will be moved up against a wall.
One full siphon with a gate valve under stand. Trickle with ball up high just to close if ever needed and one full open emergency all in overflow then return on other side of tank. Now just waiting for rest of water to brew the cycle away. Having hard time getting skimmers to run yet
when I had that skimmer, I mounted the pump sideways, not vertically (upside down) like the instructions said. Never once had a start up issue with it on like that.
